I am very satisfied with this headlamp – it has been working for over a year now, which is not so typical at this price point. It is comfortable to wear and offers basic lighting modes. The white light is quite focused and does not spread much. The red light is very gentle, while the green is noticeably stronger. It also has a strobe mode, as described in the product details. I often came across opinions that the torch can switch off – this only happened to me in high humidity. Then, the torch noticeably dims, and with a slight tap, it goes out. After switching it on again, it works, though in such conditions the problem may return. Despite everything, you have to remember that this is inexpensive equipment, not designed for specialist use. As a backup light source, it works very well. Another advantage is that it uses batteries, which you can always have spare.

The torch is inexpensive and has basic lighting options. The green light works brilliantly, the red one is weaker but it doesn't attract insects to your face at night. The white light is available in two versions and works flawlessly, and I probably won't use the strobe mode as I don't need it. For such a price, I consider this purchase very successful.
-
This is not the strongest or most comfortable headlamp I have used, but for this price it works very well – ideal for DIY, looking for things in the basement, or as a backup light source during trips.
-
What I like least is the red light, but I was positively surprised by the green light – it's perfectly sufficient for reading a book held at arm's length. The large switch makes it easy to use, even in thick gloves. The price matches the product's quality. No batteries are included. The angle adjustment seems a bit delicate, but it does its job.
-
The torch matches the description and works well for night walks in the woods. The red LED is quite weak – it's sufficient for reading a map, but it doesn't provide enough light for your feet. The package also lacks batteries.
-
Very good headlamp for this price. Even on the first mode this provides intense light. The red and green LEDs are also worth mentioning. The only downside is the mechanism for adjusting the tilt angle – just a small movement of the head or a touch is enough to change the setting. This problem also occurs when pressing the button. Perhaps it's just an issue with my unit. However, during regular use it's not particularly troublesome.
-
Great purchase! I bought it for my five-year-old and I'm already ordering another one. Considering the price, its performance is amazing! My old headlamp from the well-known brand Petzl pales in comparison. I highly recommend it!
-
I definitely recommend this product – a big advantage is the option to change the mode and direction of the light. The price is exceptionally attractive for such a well-made headlamp.
-
The lamp provides quite directional light and has two modes – stronger and weaker (the weaker mode is perfectly sufficient for moving around at night). The angle adjustment turned out to be much more useful than I expected.
-
In my opinion, this is truly an excellent product. I've already bought another one – one is in my room and I use it as needed, and the other is always in my backpack. The advantage is the ability to adjust the angle of illumination and the various colours, including the red light option. I definitely recommend it.
-
This headlamp is really impressive – it works better than I expected based on the description, it's small, practical, and well made. The green light is a big advantage, as it’s not always available in other models. It's great that it's a product from a Polish company. I definitely recommend it.
-
To start, I'll say that the headlamp costs 40 PLN and, for a headlamp, that's an attractive price. The strap works properly. There are many lighting modes – I mainly use the normal one and sometimes the red one. It is completely sufficient for outdoor use at night, even in moonlight.
-
This headlamp works great as a backup torch and uses regular batteries that you can buy almost anywhere. It's interesting thanks to the coloured LEDs and can be really useful at times. It's just a shame that the website listed a black version, but I received a grey one.
-
Let me start by saying that at 40 PLN the price for a headlamp is very good. The strap is solid. Plenty of modes – I usually use white, sometimes red. For outdoor use at night with moonlight it’s perfectly sufficient.
-
The light is rather focused, there are two modes – stronger and weaker, and the latter is easily enough after dark. The adjustable beam angle is much more practical than I thought.
